Hi Capetown

Thank you got your information. I will add it to my notes for Sturge in my tree. Pity she is called Sarah but I suppose she could have been Mary.

Hi Capetown

Yes, thank you. I have the inventory of Christopher's household goods etc. Years ago I visited most relevant Record Offices [pre-computers]. I also was in touch with someone who was descended from the Bristol Musical branch. She gave me copies of the many interesting trees and documents regarding the Sturge branches, including the Quakers of Gaunts Earthcott. Tanners were part of that branch. There are lots of Sturges in that area.
